Thanks for your reply. I’m looking closer at 700 square foot, but agree humidity is a consideration.

Yep, humidity is definitely condensation.

My kids learned this song in kindergarten, sung to the tune of Darling Clementine, and spent many hours teaching it to me:

Evaporation
Condensation
Precipitation
Collection…
(repeat until Dad screams)

So I am gonna have to disagree with you there lol!

Could your existing system support that much extra space? I don’t know if a dehumidifier alone would handle it. Maybe a small heat pump would be best without breaking the bank?

Good point. Probably not, therefore perhaps best to not tap into it.
